Mind if I ask what exactly you want out of the car you're getting? performance, or just a nice daily driver?

kootah wrote If I were in your shoes, I would personally not buy a car at this point in time. If you make what you say you make per year I would 100% build a house. It'll last you a long time.
Wait one more year then get a car. But if you are getting a car right now, you have to look at all perspectives.
Maintenance costs. It's a good thing to say that the more exotic a car, the more exotic is will be to maintain it. Oil changes, filters, oil, gas, the list goes on and on.
Maintenance being a huge part in my decision making, I would, personally, choose the Chevy Corvette. It looks amazing, and seriously, any corvette will turn heads. It's not that common to see a brand new one, especially the highest end model one. Also depends where you live. In LA you probably see tons of them, same with NYC and Miami.
I think you should look into all your options first and check out what maintenance costs look like, insurance, premium gas prices, etc.
I live in a small Podunk town in Alabama, and I've seen about 5 or 6.
But Axe, fulfill my dream and get the GTR. It looks so sick!

Ultimately, I'm not using the car for racing or anything like that so the performance aspect of the cars will all do just fine. Im looking for a car that can turn heads and that I can have fun driving. I want the car to be unique on the roads and I was going more for the supercar style of body, which is why I'm a little bit hesitant with the Nissan GTR.
It won't log that many miles either as I use my Range Rover for most of my driving for work and such.

Do what you would like, if possible test rive each car and go with the one you like the best. They are all going to attract attention it's just about what you like te most.
I would go with the Ferrari or the McLaren.

From my last post
Now that you brought two more beauties into the mix, i am going to change what i said.When you had the first three cars, i said i would go with the GTR. Now im leaning towards the Mclaren. The Mclaren is just gorgeous man.
Here is what i think. I read somewhere on here that you play professionally.
Are you going to have time to do upgrades on the car you buy or are you just going to keep it simple? The way i see it is that the Audi R8 has way more upgrades than the Mclaren. I have personally seen fixed up R8's and they looks awesome. Way better than stock. If your going to spend more on building and upgrading a car, go with the R8. If your not going to have enough time to upgrade your cars because of work, go with the Mclaren. The Mclaren, in my eyes, is perfect already, it doesn't need that much upgrading. unless you want to make upgrade it to something like this.
Good luck and hopefully your purchase goes well.
Please dont choose yellow
Im going to put myself in your shoes for a moment.
Out of these 3, i would automatically cross out the corvette. Why? its too common. There are many corvettes out there. My personal taste on cars is that i ant people to stare at my car, I want my ride to stand out from he rest of the same type of cars. So no corvette.
As for the GTR, if it looks gorgeous just stock, imagine when you do minor upgrades such as front lip spoiler like you have on the pic, upgrade wheels, or just upgrade the exterior for it to look nice and stand out more than the other stock GTR's.
As for the ferrari, this ride looks clean, BUT, i believe the service for the ferrari is way more expensive than the other two, so you have to think about that too. The ferrari is beautiful, but limited in upgrades. Dont get me wrong, you can upgrde any sort of vehicle, any, but its just its going to be custom, meaning way more expensive than aftermarket parts.
So of these three, i would go with the GTR. Many upgrades available for it, love the design. Thats the problem with the corvette, the way i see it. There are many trim levels that looks the same so you cant really say if its old or new since there werent many upgrades done to the body year after year until the stingray came out where as the GTR is a completely new design.
So in the end, GTR

If you want a unique car why u no listen? :tellme:
The Noble M600 is perfect, it will no doubt turn heads and performance will be no problem. If you find another of these on the streets i will pay you (Money)

At least consider it...

I would go with the Nissan gtr as it is stylish a good car and saves you a good bit of money over the others even though the price doesnt matter.

I would take the GTR and for still way less than the others you can push 1000hp out of it.
